I found this guy on Tehelka's mini-series called The Music Project. His name is Sahej Bakshi and he is based out of Delhi. The song that he plays on the Tehelka show was just really really really funky! He uses a pre-programmed pad and a bunch of other shiney looking computer things to get a really happy and heavy techno sound. Here give it a listen yourself:
Now you might say, what's so "Indian" about this? Well firstly the guy is Indian =D. But more importantly, I think that his music reflects a very real and relevant part of urban cities such as Delhi or Mumbai. Even the dude looks like he's a Delhi product and he has been through the "mall-iffication" of the city, and I don't mean that in a negative way. I just mean that he's seen it.... whatever don't hate!
Anyway, he has a website which you can get to over -> Here, and he has a bunch of music on Soundcloud.com which you can get to over -> Here :D. I think he would be really fun to see live, even if he's just playing a set in a club or at a lounge.
So Dualist Inquiry definitely makes my Big Board for the time being. Check him out and let me know what you think.
